Product Description

[About Shusui's actual machine]
- Shusui is Japan's first rocket-powered fighter jointly developed by the Japanese Army and Navy.
-Aiming for high performance, which was epoch-making at the time, reaching an altitude of 10,000m in 3 minutes and 30 seconds and a maximum speed of 900km/h, development was promoted with reference to the German Me163.
- The first flight on July 7, 1945 crashed and was wrecked.
- After that, repairs continued, and although there were great expectations as a trump card for intercepting the B-29, the war ended without participating in actual combat.

- Completed length 126mm, width 198mm
- Set of 5 decals including the army version.
